IF Obama is Elected will Israel not be one of our Closest allies any longer? Will the Radical Middle East Countries feel like they can "Push Israel into the sea"? And will Obama Let them as President of the United States if elected?

Take a Close Hard Look at who Obama's Friends and Adviser's are.....Folks.......

If you think they do not have influence and if you think Obama does not share their values then you are sadly mistaken, Obama attended a Racist Church with Rev.Wright and Rev. Wright Married Michelle and Barack Obama, that Church gave Louis Farrakhan a known Racist Muslim its Highest Award! Once again Obama attended that Church for over 20 Years and if you think him and his wife do not share the same views as Jesse Jackson, Rev.Wright and Louis Farrakhan then you are just not opening your eyes and seeing who they really are and what they truly value.

Jackson believes that, although "Zionists who have controlled American policy for decades" remain strong, they'll lose a great deal of their clout when Barack Obama enters the White House.

PREPARE for a new America: That's the message that the Rev. Jesse Jackson conveyed to participants in the first World Policy Forum, held at this French lakeside resort last week.

He promised "fundamental changes" in US foreign policy - saying America must "heal wounds" it has caused to other nations, revive its alliances and apologize for the "arrogance of the Bush administration."

The most important change would occur in the Middle East, where "decades of putting Israel's interests first" would end.

Jackson believes that, although "Zionists who have controlled American policy for decades" remain strong, they'll lose a great deal of their clout when Barack Obama enters the White House.

"Obama is about change," Jackson told me in a wide-ranging conversation. "And the change that Obama promises is not limited to what we do in America itself. It is a change of the way America looks at the world and its place in it."

Jackson warns that he isn't an Obama confidant or adviser, "just a supporter." But he adds that Obama has been "a neighbor or, better still, a member of the family." Jackson's son has been a close friend of Obama for years, and Jackson's daughter went to school with Obama's wife Michelle.

"We helped him start his career," says Jackson. "And then we were always there to help him move ahead. He is the continuation of our struggle for justice not only for the black people but also for all those who have been wronged."

Will Obama's election close the chapter of black grievances linked to memories of slavery? The reverend takes a deep breath and waits a long time before responding.

"No, that chapter won't be closed," he says. "However, Obama's victory will be a huge step in the direction we have wanted America to take for decades."

Jackson rejects any suggestion that Obama was influenced by Marxist ideas in his youth. "I see no evidence of that," he says. "Obama's thirst for justice and equality is rooted in his black culture."

But is Obama - who's not a descendant of slaves - truly a typical American black?

Jackson emphatically answers yes: "You don't need to be a descendant of slaves to experience the oppression, the suffocating injustice and the ugly racism that exists in our society," he says. "Obama experienced the same environment as all American blacks did. It was nonsense to suggest that he was somehow not black enough to feel the pain."

Is Jackson worried about the "Bradley effect" - that people may be telling pollsters they favor the black candidate, but won't end up voting for him?

"I don't think this is how things will turn out," he says. "We have a collapsing economy and a war that we have lost in Iraq. In Afghanistan, we face a resurgent Taliban. New threats are looming in Pakistan. Our liberties have been trampled under feet . . . Today, most Americans want change, and know that only Barack can deliver what they want. Young Americans are especially determined to make sure that Obama wins."

He sees a broad public loss of confidence in the nation's institutions: "We have lost confidence in our president, our Congress, our banking system, our Wall Street and our legal system to protect our individual freedoms. . . I don't see how we could regain confidence in all those institutions without a radical change of direction."

Jackson declines to be more concrete about possible policy changes. After all, he insists, he isn't part of Obama's policy team. Yet he clearly hopes that his views, reflecting the position of many Democrats, would be reflected in the policies of an Obama administration.

On the economic front, he hopes for "major changes in our trading policy."

Would that mean an abrogation of the NAFTA treaty with Canada and Mexico?

Jackson dismisses the question as "premature": "We could do a great deal without such dramatic action."

His most surprising position concerns Iraq. He passionately denounces the toppling of Saddam Hussein as "an illegal and unjust act." But he's now sure that the United States "will have to remain in Iraq for a very long time."

What of Obama's promise to withdraw by 2010? Jackson believes that position will have to evolve, reflecting "realities on the ground."

"We should work with our allies in Iraq to consolidate democratic institutions there," he says. "We must help the people of Iraq decide and shape their future in accordance with their own culture and faith."

On Iran, he strongly supports Obama's idea of opening a direct dialogue with the leadership in Tehran. "We've got to talk to tell them what we want and hear what they want," Jackson says. "Nothing is gained by not talking to others."

Would that mean ignoring the four UN Security Council resolutions that demand an end to Iran's uranium-enrichment program? Jackson says direct talks wouldn't start without preparations.

"Barack wants an aggressive and dynamic diplomacy," he says. "He also wants adequate preparatory work. We must enter the talks after the ground has been prepared," he says.

Jackson is especially critical of President Bush's approach to the Israel-Palestine conflict.

"Bush was so afraid of a snafu and of upsetting Israel that he gave the whole thing a miss," Jackson says. "Barack will change that," because, as long as the Palestinians haven't seen justice, the Middle East will "remain a source of danger to us all."

"Barack is determined to repair our relations with the world of Islam and Muslims," Jackson says. "Thanks to his background and ecumenical approach, he knows how Muslims feel while remaining committed to his own faith."

Obama will defend ISRAEL.however,it must be understood that ISRAEL is very capable of defending itself.it has all the modern weapons supplied by the US to destroy its enemies.however,Isreal is not perfect.and without blame for its problems.nor is it the 51ST STATE as Sen.Lieberman views it.AMERICA is the only nation capable of bringing peace to the middle east.it cannot accomplish this if it does not position itself as neutral.to declare itself as an uncompromiseing ally of ISRAEL as the BUSH administration did is counter productive.unless all your interested in is the JEWISH vote.

why is McCAIN/PALIN RIGHT FOR AMERICA?please be specific.no right wing mumbo jumbo with words like SOCIALISM,abortion,religious values.thats hog wash..get to the basic facts as to what your party would do to solve our problems.

I believe Obama's plan for America and the World will be one that the people who voted for him will be crying the loudest to try to bring him down and find out that there has been way to much damage to be fixed.

I agree. You can find some good in everything. If Obama wins, it will be entertaining to watch the buyer's remorse and whining from the decent people who support him nowwhen they find out what they really voted for.

Yes they will - nothing changes, Its economic and you know how Israelis are, and it is also based on the fact that israel owns the second/third largest arsenal of nuclear weapons.
How dare you act like you have the say some sort of say so anyway. You have no idea what you talk about.

You are a God damned fear monger!

Why not try to win the election on the issues instead of this tiered out bullshit?

Israel is in trouble. Barack's friends and acquaintances are very Anti-Israel. Israel is only about 3 miles one direction and about 4 miles the other. It's not a large country at all. All the Muslim countries have attacked them and are very hostile and want to annihilate them..They have only lasted as long as they have because of our help...and if you look at the globe, our country isn't a large piece on the earth either. What makes us Great is our Patriotic people, Our Economy because of Democracy, and our Technology.
The people who he associates with all hate the Jews. It's pathetic how he conveniently tries to disassociate people that stirs up controversy when it's politically convenient for him to do so....He speaks with too many tongues.. I wish people would pay attention...

I feel sorry for the Jews. There are not many of them, and their country is so small.

""We helped him start his career," says Jackson. "And then we were always there to help him move ahead. He is the continuation of our struggle for justice not only for the black people but also for all those who have been wronged."

"But is Obama - who's not a descendant of slaves - truly a typical American black?

"Obama experienced the same environment as all American blacks did. It was nonsense to suggest that he was somehow not black enough to feel the pain."

How much "pain" has Barack and Michelle Obama suffered? Was it pretty painful at Harvard? was it Painful being a senator in Illinois?

Obama is 1/2 black and 1/2 white or do we forget his white mother...and people say this is not about race...he want to forget about to white side of himself and you never see any of his family around him wonder why

Has nothing to do with his color, has everything to do with his Chicago style corrupt polotics, has everything to do with his Relationships with Terrorists/Racists and Criminals..........and the list is long and some are Black and Some Are White.....criminals know no color except the color Green......

Rev. Wright........RACIST

Jesse Jackson..........RACIST

AL Sharpton..............RACIST

BILL AYERS...........TERRORIST

Ms. Dorn.................TERRORIST

Louis Farrakhan.........RACIST

TONY REZKO.............CRIMINAL

JIM JOHNSON............CRIMINAL

FRANKLIN RAINES........CRIMINAL

The list is much, much longer but you get the point.........anyone see pattern here? these are folks who Obama confides in spiritually and has for years.......these are folks Obama has done business and is doing business with and its all on record, he cant hide from his suspect relationships, If McCain even had an ounce of this type of activity the Media would be going nuts......and yet they give Obama a pass on this? No pass from this voter.......

you dont even have to read between the lines on this article to see the deep seated racism that is present here. This is the first time that I have really read anything that even remotely describes what the TRUE Obama agenda is here.

This entire campaign has been nothing but side stepping the true issues - but here they are plainly revealed by a very simpethetic and admittedly close supporter of Obama - his good friend Jesse Jackson.

There is not much time in the election cycle for this to creep into the mainstream media - the same media that will do everything they can to suppress it until it's beyond obvious that its a serious issue. Then they will typically deflect it as an irrelevant issue brought up by more "racists, neo-con, hillbillys, and moose hunters" . But here it is in plain english spoken by one of their own - Barack Obama has plans to withdraw support from Isreal and at the same time engage in conversations with Iran and Islam.

In the Bible - God made a promise to Isreal. He said " I will bless those who bless you and curse those who curse you". For our nation to turn away from our long standing support of Isreal would be not only foolish - but it would be in direct contradiction to the faith that Obama claims to subscribe to. Then again - Maybe he's not really w...

you would think that if there were any group of people - specifically any race of people - that would be able to identify with the persecution that Jews have gone through it would be people of color. But here you have "Rev Jesse Jackson" - candidly sharing about converstaions that he has had with Obama that are truely racist in spirit and actually siding with Islam and specifically against Isreal.

This may not be the end of the world - but it sure does seem to be their intention that it's the end of the world as we know it.

Bravo sir........I hope all true Americans, Democrats,Republicans and Indipendents are looking very closely................Obama has always said he is for "change" but he has never DEFINED that "change" for anyone and now we are seeing what that change truly is.......I wonder how long til the President of Iran is over for Dinner in the White House should Obama Get Elected?

How can anyone not wonder why Israel has lasted so long in the midst of the larger nations around them, by people who are constantly and strategically trying to annihilate them. They were able to defend themselves from being attacked by several nations at once. Regardless what religion we are in, they are God's chosen people..When Jesus comes again, it will be because of them.

Don't worry. There are many of our soldiers who would not dare. Most of us has a conscience, which was God Given..and regardless, no matter what, whether goaded or forced, that is something people would rather die than turn on Israel...It's already been discussed in our household..People with the conscience would turn to help Israel first..That conscience has nothing to do with what denomination or religion you are..it's in the gut and the heart.
